Error with PHP compact() function

ryan

Hi, I've recently set up a new Bug Genie installation and have been having a couple of problems with error messages relating to the compact function.

I get it both on the login page (I've set up the requirement for user accounts) and also on the report issue popup.

This is the message from the report page popup:

AN ERROR OCCURRED IN THE BUG GENIE
compact(): Undefined variable: issue
The following notice has stopped further execution:
compact(): Undefined variable: issue in /home/buggenieinstallation/core/modules/main/templates/_reportissuecontainer.inc.php, line 7

I've turned debug mode off in the hope that the notice wouldn't stop the page from executing as usual but haven't been able to stop it from preventing me from using the software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 😄

Hello ryan,
You are probably trying to run The Bug Genie on php 7.4 (or maybe php 7.3), which is not yet supported. I have a PR with patches on Github to support this. You can give it a try: https://github.com/thebuggenie/thebuggenie/pull/566
Feedback is welcomed as the patch is probably not yet complete.
